The Pirelli 2017 calendar is almost here and we cannot wait to see the final results.

Every year Pirelli launches a stunning calendar which is usually NSFW however so arty and creative, you simply have to stop and stare.

The overtly saucy 2015 Pirelli calendar pictured models such as Models Gigi Hadid, Candice Huffine, Carolyn Murphy, Cameron Russell and more, however in 2016, Pirelli ditch the models and photographed ambassadors such as Amy Schumer and Serena Williams, singer Patti Smith and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Yao Chen, sending out a power and poignant message.

Fast forward to 2017 and the Pirelli Calendar will feature top celebrities such as Kate Winslet, Nicole Kidman, Uma Thurman and more.

Photographer Peter Lindbergh says

This Pirelli Calendar is a very important one because you don’t have to do nudity anymore, you’re not under pressure to do anything with your body, which is great,”. “Beauty today is really twisted for commercial reasons, so people think beautiful is what you see in advertising and in magazines — all these retouched women.
